Unfortunately no way to tell, you'd just have to grow them out and vent them. Females can get humps, so they're not easy to sex.

frontosas would be a good idea you could keep a colony of about 8 2 males and 6 females in a 150
i reckon the tank needs just a bit more colour, especially if you choose fronts. best display tank ive seen was a front colony, and it was because of the blue-ish lighting combined with white rocks and a few plants here and there. >mint
that tank would be good for solo trimac,or group of cichlids you grow out,then have a pair:it could be nics,viejas,RTm,freddies,cubans,texas
Ya i actually was think to add some underwater moss and let it go...i fell like it would be a cool look with the black background and pots

I had a red devil, festae, carpintis, jag x flower horn and a random blue African in my 150g up until recently. It was a great mix of cichlids, surprisingly all compatible. Each varying in size from 5 inches up to 14 inches. In my opinion it's always good to have a nice mix so there's always something happening, but that's just me. If I had to choose one to keep on its own, it would have to be the RD, simply because of personality, but they aren't for everyone. Good luck on choosing a good solitary cichlid though mate, and if you can't decide, just buy a group of little tank busters and keep your favorite after they've gained a little size and you know their personalities. It's always fun to watch them grow up
